¡FIESTA! Quinceañera

¡FIESTA! Quinceañera is a docuseries that weaves the lives of three Latina girls and a seasoned drag artist as they celebrate their quinceañera, a complex and colorful rite of passage. It’s an intimate view exploring the complexities of growing up between two cultures.
The mother-daughter relationship, at the core of every quinceañera celebration, is central to the story of Juana and her mother Irma and their battle for control of the party. For US-born Juana, a quinceañera means just a birthday party with her friends, for Irma, a working class single mother, it means tradition, family and church.
Fantasy plays a huge role in the making of a quinceañera and Oscar, a choreographer and drag artist who dreams of his own quinceañera, and videographers Melida and Jonathan are the guides into this glittering world of make believe. It’s a fantasy of giant dolls and crowns, jewelry and high heels, choreographed dances and towering cakes, and at the center of it all the dress, colorful, extravagant, and expensive.
The creative spirit of Latinx communities and their struggle to retain their roots and traditions shine through this multicultural coming of age story for a new America.
